Hi,

just a guess - do you have a hidpi monitor - there are some bug
reports about that:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1437162
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=726743
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98356

if not please get debug logs (set SPICE_DEBUG=1 or --spice-debug)

Thanks,
Pavel
